  Speaker 1: There you are?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: So? How are you?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I'm good? I'm good. So where do we even start?
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: How about here in New York City Council, they're talking
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: about doubling the minimum wage to thirty dollars an hour. Now,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: whenever this is done, every single time everywhere, as soon
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: as you do that, a lot of people get fired
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: because businesses can't afford to have that many people getting
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: that much, and the businesses closed, they leave, New businesses
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: don't come. How come democrats can't figure this out after
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: it's been proven a million times?
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: I know, I was just thinking that yet another business
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: is I think I just read on Twitter Starbucks and
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Howard Schultz moving out of Washington State because they've just
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: imposed an income tax and he's moving the headquarters Starbucks
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: to Nashville. He himself is moving to Florida. Who's going
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: to be left in these blue states? It's going to
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: be all welfare recipients, which is why we need to
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: be very careful about who whom we elect nationally, because
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the only way you can pay all the welfare recipients
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: unless you have people earning money, working productive of earning
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: money in your state, is to have the federal government
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: redistribute it from the healthy, economically healthy states to the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: welfare states, i e. Red states to the blue states.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: You know, this comes up all the time. And one
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: thing I think people the minimum wage. One thing I
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: think people aren't aren't considering about it because whatever the
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: minimum wage is at the moment, raising it bit by
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: bit incrementally doesn't quite reveal although yes, jobs are lost,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: but just how damaging it is. Without a minimum wage,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: and a minimum wage at all, there would be all
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: sorts of jobs that don't even exist now because, as
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: you say, it's not worth paying for certain jobs to
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: be done. And you know, we're devincots always talk about
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you know you can't you can't support a family of
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: four on this Okay, that's not what the minimum wage
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: is for. It's for people, you know, teenagers, it's for
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: kids maybe, or maybe people who are getting out of
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: mental health institutions or prisons, or or or disabled. In
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: some ways, it's people entering the work for us most
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: of the time, and that's very important. It sounds silly
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to someone who's had people who had jobs their entire lives,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: but learning to wake up to an alarm clock and
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: get yourself to a place of employment is a life
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: skill that the minimum wage allows people to learn. Whenever
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: this would come up in the Senate when I was
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: working there, I always wanted my boss to introduce an
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: amendment instead demanding that the minimum wage be one hundred
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars a year. And you know what would the
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Democrats argument against that be, Well, everything you and I
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: are saying it just it just makes it a little
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: more obvious.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So it's the same thing with taxes. You know,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: if you just were a common sense person looked around
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and say, these states with no taxes, no state tax
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: are booming. Every business moves there, everybody moves there. How
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: hard is that to figure out for Democrats?
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: I know, I know, and I talked to Democrats about this,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: and I guess part of the problem is the transition period,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: because they do have all these obligations to the public
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: sector union. The states, especially the Blue states, but all
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: the states could use their own DOGE program to come
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: in and get rid of all these worthless government employees
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: just fucking up taxpayer money doing jobs we don't want
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: done and being unfireable. They could really reduce the number
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: of public sector employees. And you know, the new income
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: coming in hasn't begun yet, whether it's from property taxes
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: or tourism or just more businesses moving in. So it's
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: always the transition problem, which is why you should never
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: raise taxes in the first place.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, Warren Iran has got the Democrats. They can't
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: come up with the narrative. They're trying to say, no
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: more endless wars. Can you really say endless? It's day twelve.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't call that endless, would you.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Well, i'd call it a pointless war. But I will
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: say I agree with you. I would like the Democrats
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: to be more of a loyal opposition party. And no,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're making the right arguments. But surprisingly enough,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: you know, for the first time agree with him, but Hugrews,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Joe Rogan, Andrew Schultz, I think this is this is
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: not going over well with the MAGA base.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Well, but wait till it's done. It's a good thing
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to get rid of the Aatola. It's a good thing
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to liberate Iran, isn't it.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's a good thing to take our
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: attention off our own country. I mean, as I was
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: thinking of any comment about this, I haven't yet. But
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: I was a huge supporter of obviously both Afghanistan, though
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: I must always add the footnote didn't want to stay
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: there for twenty years and paint George Floyd murals. But
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: things were very different back then. We had just been
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: attacked on nine to eleven. And I will quickly add
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: in response to liberals saying a rock didn't attack us
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: on nine to eleven. Yeah, okay, now there's a Afghanistan.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: It was al Qaeda. It was Osama bin Laden, who
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: was not an Afghani. He just happened to move his
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: wandering tints and set up the flagpole in Afghanistan. Certainly
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: there was no worse dictator than Saddam and his comely
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: sons torturing their own people, gassing his own people, gassing
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: the kuwaitis two hundred thousand killed by him. There were
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: plenty of reasons to attack Saddam Hussein, but at the
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: same time or and at the same time, the country
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: wasn't in nearly as much trouble our country, that is
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: to say, as it is now. We just went through
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: four years of the Biden administration, I won't say Joe Biden.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: So you had no idea what was going on. You're
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: hauling in multiple millions of poverty stricken, non English speaking criminals,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: and we've already had thirty million of stump. That's on
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: top of the thirty or forty million illegals we already had.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: We really have our own problems to deal with right now.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: And you know, as I said in Adios America, it's
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like when you're on a plane and they say, you know,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: in an emergency, the oxygen mask will will drop. Put
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: on your own mask first before helping children. Okay, American
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: needs to put on its own mask first before we
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: can go around helping the rest of the world. Iran
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: poses zero danger to any American, whereas, oh my gosh,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: every single day illegal aliens are killing America.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Well, hey, I don't think we talked to you since
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Christy Nome left. Are you happy about her leaving?
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I was unhappy about her being chosen. That's
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: the facts to term one of Donald Trump were well,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: mainly Christy Noman. I would also add attorney in general, Bondie.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: You want her going next?
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Trump is a little soft on the ladies, all right.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Well, and Culter great stuff. Everybody should follow her on
